Hi all snufflovers! I recently discovered the beauty of snuffs from India and I mean India line snuffs. Earlier I was suspicious because they seemed to be so perfumed but now I love them! I haven’t tried them all yet but already I have fauvourites like 7 Photo Swami and 6 Photo Super Chetak and Dholakia White and Taj and 41 Photo Himtaj Golden…all precious gems and a couple of more. I’m interested in tips of others from You who know this great countries snuffs except for the black ones - just don’t like them as they are so smeary and weak…but if there are any black snuffs from over there with ‘juice’ in them I would be happy of some suggestions. Peace - Nuuska. >:D<
well i like packing my nose with 6p anarkali, i love the scent and ive had a couple of occasions where it makes my top front teeth throb slightly i also enjoy 6p 66 as a menthol. great snuffs, i need to delve more, avoiding the whites. already have WE and 6p cheeta, pain in the ass to take and i hate the tins.
6photo Kailash and natural. 41 photo himtaj super golden Fubar Fugazi Black Joe, Snafu Plain, Medic Those are my favorite Indians at the moment
never thought of snafu plain. ill second that one too.
@Nuuska. As Dholakia White is listed as favorite, and a dislike for the black snuffs, I recommend Dholakia Black. It can be a bit smeary if you let it, but is not lacking in the N zone. Pure fermented goodness. My favorite way with it is a nice back of hand pile, and judging from your pic I can see you enjoying this method with D-Black. If you have tried it already and this is all just jumbo jumbo then dig your nose into it agin
@Nosemud - Sounds interesting enough with Dholakia Black if it is as heavy on the nic side as You said! Thanks for the tip!
Hi @Firestarter0! I haven’t tried the Anarkali yet but for sure I’m going to put that one in my next order…
@wiscsnuffer - 6 Photo Kailash I will order with the next shipment! How is the Indian plain compared to say Toque Quit and Natural as those are my fauvourite plain snuffs up to date?

@Mouse. Hi! Where do You order the other snuffs from except Super Chetak- cause that one is at Mistersnuff? They sound very tempting!
6 Photo No.66, Super Kailash and Anarkali are all favourites in our household. I currently have 66 & Super Kailash mixed 50/50 in my all day snuff box Not terribly fond of Dholakia snuffs, however Ganga has a great scent.

What a great situation you are in, being able to talk about snuff and refer to your ‘household’ preferences. im bored of being the only snuffer in my house, relationship, family and physical friend circles. i dont know a single person physically that uses snuff in any capacity. nobody seems interested in trying either, except my girlfriend who will occasionally go on a snuff binge in an evening like once a month-less, and once took a gletscher prise box home for awhile, till her parents found it and binned it. shes 20.
6P Kailash, 5P Himalaya, Sun Pari They are all the same “type” of snuff and very similar to each other. 41P Himtaj Black looks like it may be this type too so i’m looking forward to trying it but am going to have to get all my Christmas shopping done before I can place another order
@LadySnuff also likes 6P Motia, Special and Kailash; I’m not that keen on the dark ones. We’ll be ordering a few more 6P soon. @Firestarter0 It is just the two of us though, we don’t know anyone else who smokes a pipe let alone uses snuff… However, it is great to be able to discuss your next order with someone. I suppose that’s why @LadySnuff has been on here for the last year or so, and I’m pleased to have joined too
@Mouse - Hi! I’m only with my Android phone now but will check out that place tomorrow with my girlfriends Mac. Thanks for the tip - my nose now filled with wonderful Dholakia Taj.
@Firestarter0…I know how You feel - I’m in the same situation except for 1 friend who occasionally (very seldom) comes over for a snuffparty but when it happens it’s Great! But we do have this Amazing forum to turn to nevertheless and that ain’t a bad thing!! Here we can talk and share everything snuffrelateted and whatever other things too fortunately. We are ‘freaks’ to many people - I know bec- ause I’ve tried to get many people to understand the joy of snuffing (smokers mostly) but to my big dissapointment they only say: Gaah, how can you snort this stuff up your nose - you must be crazy…But here at @SnuffHouse.org we are all great buddies, he he! And try to be happy over this @Firestarter0…I even have talked to my local tobacconist’s but he hasn’t brought in any snuff yet even if I have offered to order it to him so he would avoid Swedish tobaccotaxes… :-??
6 Photo Kailash (#1) 6 Photo Special (#2)
Got to agree with you there @howdydave !
@Nuuska My favorite is 6 Photo Medicated No66 as is a great snuff for enjoyment but more importantly if my sinuses are playing up (especially hayfever season) this snuff is a god send and calms things right down while delivering decent nicotine. As one or two others have mentioned; 6 Photo Special is a fantastic dark snuff with a bit of zing. In my mind India is only second to the UK as a snuff producing nation. They produce superb snuffs and some of the added herbs are without parrallel.
Hi @Mouse! This HOOKAH - site only seems to sell 12-packs of those snuffs You mentioned in 50g tins. Is it so?
^yes it is, they are a wholesale store
Yep, got to buy 12 of them, but the price is cheap; maybe sell some of the extras to your friends here who live in the EU?
@n9inchnails or @Mouse - or prepare my nose for an Indian Snuff Marathon never seen before, ha ha! =)) But thanks for the tip anyhow! There is no possibility of buying directly from India then? :-?
@wiscsnuffer - 6 Photo Kailash I will order with the next shipment! How is the Indian plain compared to say Toque Quit and Natural as those are my fauvourite plain snuffs up to date?
Snafu plain is strong, nutty some people say fishy type of scent. Its fine grind with medium moisture and is pretty easy to snuff. A couple fat boxcars will yield a nice nic buzz. It has some nose burn to it. Stronger than quit. Doesn’t smell anything like it. Flavor is similar to Dholakia White but more intense. 6 Photo Natural is amazing. It has a very subtle scent. It is probably the most plain naturals I’ve had. But the nic is also the strongest in my opinion. It is definitely a go to when I really have strong cravings.
@wiscsnuffer - thank You for the very good info about these natural snuffs!!
I love white elephant!!!
@franko954 - keep on riding the White Elephant and enjoy it as a true snuffer, Amen!
6P Special is the only India snuff I carry daily. best decongestant ever, But I can say I like them all except Dholakia Rose chocolate; That was too cloying for me.Enjoy the journey, I have
Thank You @basement_shaman! I must admit that I am totally sold on these Indian Beauties! They are so excellent with the special orientalic scents and herbs! Totally Awesome!!! >:D< Hookah Hey my Friend…
I totally LOVE 6 Photo snuffs, they are the best! I could not be without 6 Photo Super Kailash and No.66 on a daily basis. I also love 6 Photo Anarkali, Kailash and Special. I have not tried Cheetah or Super Chetak yet, but that is something to look forward to.
I have Kailash and Anarkali in glass jars, and I enjoy them occasionally. Dholakia Black is another that I’ll partake of when the mood is right. My tastes are still evolving though, and I may yearn for them more later, but right now I’m more into the English snuffs and the Indians I have are an occasional treat. Wow Wine and Cheese is nigh on puke inducing, and my Super Kailash is still factory sealed after about 6 months of ownership …
Hello Beautiful @LadySnuff! You should try 7Photo ‘Golden’…an Orgasm of Indian Snuff in a Very Sensual Sense if You get the Idea… :x Have a SuperNice Time @LadySnuff!!
And Yes @LadySnuff - the 6 Photo Super Chetak is a Very Nice and Strong Snuff with a Lovely Scent…a bit on the dry side and not that easy to take from the back of the hand but when You have it in Your Nose…Oh my God!!! >:D<
Super Chetak smells amazing…to a dung beetle ( can you guess what my least favourite 6P snuff is)
Fucking my Nose is Filled with Dholakia Taj and my mouth with Offroad OP - 3 pouches, he he!! I’m in Tobacco Heaven!!! :">
Looking forward to the arrival of 50 grams of Dholakia Sparrow. It’s been recommended to me as a strong dark natural. Funny, it was $5.50 for 25g and $6.60 for 50g. Easy!
@sixphoto - couldn’t You add the benevolant Brahmiherb to some of Your Beautiful snuffs? I have recently ordered the 45g tub of Your ‘Motia’ amongst others as I emptied the 8g tub in no time at all because it is a Great snuff!! LOVE it! Namaste. =D>
Namaste! Thanks for your appreciation,All our snuff do contain extracts of rare Indian herbs and spices
@jakartaboy Sparrow is very light and pale, akin to a toast. Its not at all dark.
Definitely 41 Photo White Elephant for me. It has such an exotic nutty scent. For some reason it makes me think of pistachios or pecans or something. Some kind of p-nut. I like a lot though, 6 Photo Motia is my favorite mentholated snuff right now. There was some discussion of SNAFU plain up there, I think it smells like salmon but really the scent is not that strong for me and I only get it if it’s the first snuff of the day.
@jakartaboy Sparrow is very light and pale, akin to a toast. Its not at all dark.
Yes, it just turned up today. It’s about the colour of light cocoa. My initial impressions are very favourable. But it always takes a week or so to really decide about a snuff, I reckon, so I’ll save my comments for when I’ve had it for a bit longer,
Well, @sixphoto…I really Appreciate whatever Herbs You put into Your Wonderful Snuffs - They All make me feel Really and Totally Fine!!! =D> Boom Shankar Shiva!!!
Just opened my tin of 6 Photo Kailash for the very first time. I cracked up laughing because it brings back good memories of my youth at New Talavana. There is a great deal of emotional attachment to that fragrance. Nag Champa, isn’t it?
I received Himtaj Golden a couple of days ago and I haven’t been able to put it down since. I’ve just put a large tin in my shopping cart as this 10g is going fast!
I like all the Indian snuff I’ve tried. I keep them all in cigar boxes of like size tins. Sometimes I go for the photos, 6, 7, 41, and 5. Other times I go for just Dholakia’s. I can’t name just one as my favorite. They are, to me, a distinct class of snuff. Within that class, I mentally divide them into whites, blacks, browns, and tans.
I like all…
@crullers: We are grateful to hear that and sure to keep up the good work and introduce more variety for all snuff lovers.
White Elephant, Sparrow, NC are all world class, outstanding, strong, unscented snuffs.
Hi @JakartaBoy! I just filled my nose with 6 Photo ‘Natural’ and it Really kicks hard! And the taste is Great too! D. White i take once in a while but I like 6 Photo ‘Natural’ more. Sparrow is very nice! Happy snuffin’!
